Chlorophyll in chloroplasts is located in

  • grana

  • pyrenoid

  • stroma

  • both (a) and (c)


A.

grana

Chloroplast, which is a cytoplasmic cell organelle found only in eukaryotic plant cells. It helps in the production of food through, photosynthesis.

Chlorophyll is a specialized light absorbing pigment which is found in the inner wall of granum. Each granum is a flat, sac like structure in which light reaction of photosynthesis takes place.
